I won't be watching the 'do' either, I do wish them all the best, but have absolutly no interest in watching someone I dont know get married, have fun at your parties etc though :T

My feelings exactly. We've spent the morning tackling tasks that needed doing, but that I can't manage on my own; particularly, the awkward-to-get-to corner cupboard in the kitchen has been decluttered, cleaned, tidied, and a whole load of extraneous pint beer glasses put out to give to the local CAMRA branch for the beer festival tombola.

We also went through a wardrobe, and turfed out some stuff to go to the RSPCA shop. Amongst it is the jeans I had before I lost 2 and a half stone - I could fit into them about one and a half times now!:rotfl:

Mr LW is currently up in the loft, in search of some paperwork that's well over seven years old (from when he was self-employed) that can now be shredded.;)

DH has popped home with the brood. Has had a rant about the RW being on every channel and paying his liscence fee and wanting to listen to interesting articles on the radio and not the RW. Will be glad when he goes back to the allotment as he keeps muttering things.

Hi,

It's been a long time since I've posted on the OS board but I really need to get back on track - and where better to say hi than the daily :hello:

I have no idea what's going on with who and who is doing what so I'll just send some big (((HUGS))) out there for anyone who wants/needs them :grouphug: :grouphug:

OS wise ... well ... I'm starting a 4 week bootcamp on Monday. I have to attend 3 times a week for exercise and stick to only fresh foods :T Really looking forward to it and have ordered online shop with Mr T to get me started and done weeks meal plan :cool: What I am struggling with is kids lunch boxes. I want to get them on board too because cutting out any rubbish from their diets can only be a good thing ... however ... what can I give them that's savoury and completely fresh that they will eat (have one who point blank refuses salads) :huh: However, I was blessed enough to receive free food parcels from my local foodbank and am not sure what to do with them. They are all processed foods so I think I'm going to give them all to the children and wean them over to the fresh stuff gradually so that may be they won't notice :huh:

I've planted out all sorts of veggies and salad stuff in the garden a couple of weeks ago so am hoping that come Sept I'll have a good crop this year

The house isn't in too bad a shape - although the clean washing pile is HUGE :eek: and the paperwork pile is really a mountain ... in fact it's taking up a whole cupboard atm The kitchen's looking good, just one hot spot to sort out in living room and the bedrooms are all looking neat and tidy too :T I'm going to follow flylady level 1 (AT LEAST!!) every day from Mon to keep on top of things :j I have good intentions don't I

I want to strip things back to basics and enjoy the simple things ... isn't that what life's all about :j:D

Hope everyone has a great day and wishing William and Kate many congratulations on their stunning wedding this morning.

Luv J x

*EDITED TO ADD* I FEEL SO GOOD JUST FOR POSTING ON THIS BOARD - MAKES ME REALISE THAT I HAVE ACHIEVED THINGS, I AM MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION AND LIFE IS GOOD. GOD BLESS OS MSE!! X

Desperate_Housewife_2-2

enjoying the royal wedding atmosphere!

I have even been thrifty as I got up early to make some bread and muffins. fat free muffins and its the 1st time I tried them (my own recipe too!)... 4oz sr flour, 4 oz sugar, 1 egg, 1tbspn soya flour, 2 tbspns natural yoghurt, vanilla essence, few spoons of water (swished round the leftovers of a jar of jam) whisk it all up and put in muffin cases and bake.

Salmon and cucumber sarnies made with salmon I got on special offer at Lidl.

I used my cake stand that I got cheap from a charity shop so a cheapo do all round and we all enjoyed it!

Hope all the MSE ers are enjoying the happy day

Afternoon All

Woke to rain this morning so joints are creaking like mad.

I hope that William and Cate have a very long and happy marriage x

Another one who enjoyed the RW but thought the dress a little bit plain for an overly expensive designer rag.

Did anyone else notice that the ring was a bit of a struggle to get on?

Watched on ITV cos I lurve Phillip Schofield and it made me chuckle when he kissed his other presenter don't know who she is though.
The flypast of the lancaster, spitfire and hurricane was breathtaking, the modern planes not so much.
Sun coming out so I think I will go and check my seedlings and give them a chat to boost them now that they have had a good slosh.
No ideas for dinner tonight -I haven't had much of an appetite for weeks but haven't lost any weight which is not bloomin fair.
Well I am off to talk to my babies
Enjoy the rest of your day all x

DH and the brood have gone at last to the allotment. He is being a grumpy little sod and really doing my head in.

I am going to have the RW on the TV and just carry on sorting the kitchen and now have to add the clothes from DC1 and DC2 from being away to the washing pile <rolls eyes>

Well it's not on every channel the carpy snooker is in BBC 2 now that I think deserves an annual refund

Feel little bit bored after the excitement of today all dressed up and no where to go LOL mind you glands are up and feel a bit off ( not cos of the pimms Lou ) so am fighting off a cold.
I loved her dress simple style like Grace Kelly suited her. Less is sometimes more

tigerfeet2006

That's it BB, Grace Kelly! been racking my brains as to what she reminded me of.
